His Stripper Chapter 35
Ever since he picked June up from her apartment, he had not been able to peel his eyes away from her. Draped in a red sequin dress with a slit riding too high up her thigh, she was chaos and beauty intertwined and she was going to be his ruin. Like Venus flytrap, she had him trapped in her shackles with no intention of letting go. This was what he was running from. This was why avoiding her was for the best. Because once he got a whiff of her, it was almost like he couldn’t control himself anymore. He’d make blatant excuses just to see her. He’d say things that he never wish to say. She was an obvious trap but somehow his steps still led to her. He should let her go. The contract between them was non-existent at this point. He couldn’t continue with it after everything that had happened anyway. His father thought him better than this. He instilled into him how emotions like this was a weakness and how he should avoid it at all cost. He’d seen in real time how emotions like thi

A frosty splash of fear snatched air off her lungs and she felt an instant squeezing hurt in her chest. Her heart leaped like a wild stag in her throat, sweeping a faint dizziness over her. She gasped, trying to scrape in any oxygen she could get due as an ache tightened her chest. The voices around her blared in high frequency making her head pound heavy. Her thought scrambled a sentence. —Aiden and Amy are with the loan shark. Aiden and Amy are with the loan shark—Oh, God. Oh, God. She’d done all they asked her to do. She’d paid the debt in full even though she wasn’t owing them. She’d even paid the interest with no complaint because she didn’t want to have anything to do with them. Because she didn’t want them to come for the twins. So what could they possibly want from her? Or her siblings? A gale assailed her, threatening to sweep her off her feet. She felt her leg wobble beneath her before fumbling, leading her straight to the floor. A hand caught her around the waist be

“Does it matter?” June averted her gaze and the question sat tight in the air. Deep inside, He hoped she didn’t sign the contract due to the debt. However, the restless shifting of her eyes hinted at the painful truth. Damn.He should have sensed it. He was suspicious of her sudden change of heart. His hunch told him something was up with her.Now that everything was clear in the open, it didn’t take a genius to put it together. “I signed it already, nothing matters anymore.” She spoke, attempting to mask her words with a bitter hint of jest But there wasn’t just in her statement. The fact that she had signed the contract out of sheer lack of choice sickened him to the core. Even more nauseous with the entirety of what transpired between them. After a long strung-up silence, she cleared her throat, then slowly nodded her head. “Yes.” She whispered, the words barely audible as they escaped her lips. He closed his eyes briefly, letting the nauseating disgust slide down his skin. A

As Ollie strode into Max’s office, he reclined into his office chair, accessing him with a measured gaze as if trying to read through him. “A stare is the only pleasantry I deserve?” Ollie stated. Both of them had gotten so busy they couldn’t meet up for their routine golf session regularly. He was busy with his ongoing resort project in France, Max just got promoted to Attorney general, the youngest the state had known yet. Ava was busy with her new film project, Logan was busy being Logan—He is more of going with the flow, letting life lead him, never taken anything seriously, not even his life—. “Why are you here?” Max swiveled the chair closer to the desk, his gaze fixed on Ollie.“That isn’t polite to say to a visitor.” “I know you aren’t here because you miss me so get straight to the point.” Ollie wiggled the wrapper bag in his hands. “Here with your congratulatory gift. I heard you got promoted.” Max sighed, massaging his temple. “I got promoted one month ago.” “Well,

Did she have any idea as to why she opposed the cancellation of the contract when it was all she wanted?—Well until somewhere in the middle—No. She did not. All she knew was her mouth suddenly took charge sprouting out words without her brain processing any of it, opposing that the contract be canceled. Honestly, she wasn’t ready to face the reasons behind her actions either, too scared to know why she did what she did. So Here she was with Ollie at a gallery opening. After getting checked off the guest list, She and Ollie slipped through the door into the art gallery with solid evidence of his hand on her lower back gently guiding her into the gallery. In awe, June sucked in a breath when they stepped into the gallery. She’d never been to a gallery opening before but was it supposed to be this grandeur and sophisticated? The gallery featured high ceilings adorned with crown moldings with shimmering crystal lights casting a warm, soft glow on the space which highlighted each art

His mind swirled in a chaotic dance of confusion as he made his way to June. This was the first time he wasn’t elated about the rapid progression of a business deal. He should be excited that the deal was progressing and David was showing positive responses. Instead, he felt sullen. The sooner the deal got finalized, the sooner he had to let June go and he didn’t want that. He wanted to keep her by his side. He weaved through the crowd with his head held high, his feet taking long strides in a bid to avoid any stops. He was tired of useless conversation that led nowhere. Though some were useful information, the majority held no ounce of usefulness. His lips curled into a gradual smile, captivated by the sight of June’s flowing brown hair. She looked so beautiful, he couldn’t help himself earlier. If David hadn’t interrupted he wouldn’t have stopped and his hand would still be exploring her, trying to take everything he could. Memorizing the fine lines of her body. Printing the sou

The silence between them was thick as they settled into the vehicle. The engine roared to life, breaking the stillness of the moment. The streetlights outside cast a soft glow in the car as they embarked on the drive. Each passing second only seemed to amplify the unspoken tension between them. As they drove through the city streets, June stole glances at him, searching for some glimpse of what he might be thinking. But his expression remained stoic, his gaze was on the road ahead. It was as if he erected a wall around himself. June's hands fidgeted, hating that she was bad at comforting people. Her mind ramped ahead with thoughts of what to say. Should she crack a silly joke? Or tell him her father, when he was alive was also a piece of shit who exploited her and her older brother? Not to judge but anyone could tell from a mile away that Ollie’s father wasn’t a good one. Because who talks to their son like that? Besides that, he rubbed on her the wrong way. She cussed under her br

“Surprise, I brought your favorite pizza.”It took everything in her to not cuss as her eyes snapped to the door. She instinctively recoiled before swiftly adjusting her blouse and aimlessly running her palms on the first aid box. “What the hell, Amy?”Her attention drew back to the box. With irritation at the interrupted moment, she snapped the lid shut with an unintended force before sliding her hand under the handle, lifting it as she rose to her feet. She strolled past Amy, who stood by the doorway, her eyes centered on Ollie. As June neared Aiden, she impulsively extended her arm to his hair, gently brushing her fingerprints with his hair. “Don’t.” Aiden shot a disapproving glance from the corner of his eyes towards her which made her withdraw her arm. “Why are you both home? Weren’t you supposed to wait for my call?” She said with a mix of concern and annoyance. After the incident, the twins no longer stayed at home when she wasn’t around. They stayed with Lola until she wa
